Besprijegovni paket GNX™ 52 za vjetar

The GNX Wind display is designed to show wind data, including wind speed and direction, wirelessly transmitted by the gWind Wireless 2 sensor. It can also display true wind speed and angle if a boat speed data source is connected to the NMEA 2000 network.

The gWind Wireless 2 wind transducer is powered by an internal battery that must be installed before mounting. It also has solar charging capabilities, as it is recommended to store it in a location exposed to light to maintain battery charge. If the transducer is stored in a dark place, it is advisable to replace the battery at the start of each season.

The GNX Wind display has a water resistance rating compliant with IEC 60529 IPX7, meaning it can withstand accidental immersion up to 1 meter for 30 minutes. The gWind Wireless 2 wind sensor is rated IPX6 according to IEC 60529, providing protection against heavy seas.

The GNX Wind display is designed for flush mounting. Installation requires cutting a 90 mm (3.5 inch) hole in the mounting surface using the provided template, drilling pilot holes of 2.8 mm (7/64 inch) for the screws, then securing the instrument with the supplied screws. It is recommended to apply marine sealant around the sealing gasket at the rear of the unit to prevent leaks behind the dashboard.

The gWind Wireless 2 wind transducer must be mounted on a horizontal surface at the top of the mast. If no horizontal surface is available, an appropriate shim must be added. It is crucial that the transducer be installed facing forward on the boat, parallel to the centerline. If the alignment is not perfectly straight, it can be adjusted via the GNX Wind display to ensure accurate wind angle data.

Yes, the GNX Wind display connects to power and data sources via an NMEA 2000 network. The pack includes the necessary NMEA 2000 cables and connectors to connect to an existing network or to create a basic network, allowing it to receive data from other NMEA 2000 devices, such as speed sensors.

The GNX Wind display itself cannot receive NMEA 0183 data directly. However, it can display NMEA 0183 data if it comes from sources connected to a GNX 20 or GNX 21 device (sold separately) on the same NMEA 2000 network.

The Garmin GNX™ 52 pack is a complete solution for wind measurement. It includes the gWind Wireless 2 wireless wind sensor, the GNX Wind display, an NMEA 2000 cable, an NMEA 2000 T-connector, an NMEA 2000 power cable, an NMEA 2000 termination plug, a flush-mount installation kit, and a protective cover.

To install the GNX Wind display, first cut a 90 mm (3.5 inch) hole in the mounting surface using the provided template. Then drill pilot holes of 2.8 mm (7/64 inch). If mounting the unit in fiberglass, it is recommended to use a countersink drill to drill through the gelcoat layer to prevent cracking. Apply marine sealant around the gasket on the back of the unit before securing it with the supplied screws. For stainless steel screws in fiberglass, an anti-seize lubricant is advised.

The gWind Wireless 2 wind transducer must be mounted on a horizontal surface at the top of the mast. If the surface is not horizontal, a suitable shim must be added to create a flat surface. The transducer must be installed facing forward on the boat, parallel to the centerline. If the alignment is not perfectly straight, it can be adjusted digitally after installation via the GNX Wind display.

Yes, the GNX™ 52 pack is designed to connect to a NMEA 2000 network. The GNX Wind display and the gWind Wireless 2 sensor communicate via this network. The included NMEA 2000 cables and connectors allow you to integrate it into your existing network or to create a basic NMEA 2000 network if needed. The NMEA 2000 network provides power and data to the marine instrument.

The dimensions of the GNX Wind display are as follows:

Without protective cover: 110 x 115 x 30 mm (height x width x depth)With protective cover: 115 x 120 x 35.5 mm (height x width x depth)

Yes, the gWind Wireless 2 wind transducer has an IEC 60529 IPX-6 water resistance rating, meaning it is protected against heavy seas.

The gWind Wireless 2 sensor can measure wind speeds from 0.9 to 90 knots (0.5 to 50 m/s).

The GNX Wind display receives wind data directly from the gWind Wireless 2 wireless wind sensor. If the sensor and display are purchased together in a pack, they are typically pre-paired at the factory. The sensor transmits data wirelessly to the display, which can then show and share it over the NMEA 2000 network.

The GNX Wind display cannot directly receive NMEA 0183 data. However, it can display NMEA 0183 data from sources connected to a GNX 20 or GNX 21 device (sold separately) on the same NMEA 2000 network. The instrument can also receive data from Nexus instruments and sensors using a GND™ 10 device (sold separately).

To avoid any interference with a magnetic compass, the GNX Wind display must not be installed at a distance of less than 209 mm (8.25 inches) from a compass.

You can adjust the orientation of the gWind Wireless 2 sensor directly from the GNX Wind display. From an instrument screen on the GNX Wind, go to settings, select SENS (sensor), then ANGL (angle). You can then estimate and enter the angle in degrees clockwise by which the sensor points relative to the central axis of the bow.

Yes, the pack includes the NMEA 2000 cables and connectors required, including an NMEA 2000 power cable, to connect the device to your NMEA 2000 network. The NMEA 2000 network provides power to the instrument. It is important to connect the NMEA 2000 power cable to the boat's ignition switch or another inline switch, not directly to the battery, to avoid draining it.

The GNX Wind display allows you to select predefined profiles or create custom profiles. A POWERBOAT profile is available by default, displaying instruments useful for powerboats, such as GPS speed, GPS heading, depth, bearing to waypoint, distance to next waypoint, and water temperature. You can also configure data fields and the layout of instrument pages.
